Mapping Protocol Groups to Interfaces
Use the VLAN > Protocol (Configure Interface - Add) page to map a protocol group to a VLAN for each interface that will
participate in the group.
Command Usage
When creating a protocol-based VLAN, only assign interfaces using this configuration screen. If you assign interfaces using
any of the other VLAN menus such as the VLAN Static table, these interfaces will admit traffic of any protocol type into the
associated VLAN.
When a frame enters a port that has been assigned to a protocol VLAN, it is processed in the following manner:
If the frame is tagged, it will be processed according to the standard rules applied to tagged frames.
If the frame is untagged and the protocol type matches, the frame is forwarded to the appropriate VLAN.
If the frame is untagged but the protocol type does not match, the frame is forwarded to the default VLAN for this
interface.
The following table lists the options on this page:
